❓So much goes into a “transfer rate,” that many people don’t understand. It seems like such a simple question, numbers are numbers, but without knowing a lot about the practice and the provider you are asking, numbers mean nothing. Context matters.

🚙 My transfer rate would be much lower if I chose clients differently. If I only took a couple of first time moms each year or no VBACs or put many more restrictions on my practice. But that’s not the midwifery care I know, or the way that I want to practice.

🙌 I promise to give each client a chance. I do not promise birth location or any specific outcome. I promise to use all of my skills and knowledge to help make good clinical decisions. I promise to give clients ALL of the information and let them make their own decisions.

🤔 What is a better question to ask than “what’s your transfer rate?”

🗣️ Let’s try:

* what preventative measures do you encourage or employ to help clients avoid a transfer in pregnancy or labor?
* what types of concerns or conditions are likely to lead to a transfer in pregnancy?
* what do people transfer for most often in labor?
* do you have suggestions for avoiding transfers in labor?

Asking better, more in-depth questions, may lead us to better information. Numbers are just numbers. You don’t want your experience to be just a number.
